JayCee
Ecology
Project
Continues
by Donald L. Simmons
The Marietta Jaycees are
still actively involved in
recycling of newspapers,
magazines, books and card-
board. These may be drop-
ped off at the Jaycee Center
just off Waterford Avenue
anytime. Glass is also still
being collected for recyc-
ling—and preferably should
be taken to the Jaycee
Center on Saturdays, but
can be placed on the porch
anytime.
The money which results
from this project is used for
renovating the former
school. Replacement of win-
dows is the current project.
Membership in Jaycees is
open to young men between
18 and 36 and the Marietta
Chapter invites all eligible
men to join and become
active in our Community
during our Bicentennial
year.
